Cruz: Instead of getting a job this summer, I'm buying 50 lottery tickets every week. Baldo: How can you afford 50 tickets a week? Cruz: I'm working at my uncle's plumbing business! Cruz: My strategy is flamed, huh?
Isn’t he a bit young to buy lottery tickets? I guess it would depend where the strip is set, but here in FlorryDUH, state rules say you have to be at least 18 to purchase lottery tickets or claim a prize. Although I guess someone else could buy for him, but legally, they would be the winner…..
Imagine a roll of pennies, not just 50 pennies like in a standard bank roll, but one that stretches over 100 miles. Now imagine yourself picking one specific penny out of that roll. Those are your odds of winning a lottery like Power Ball. .
When the Iowa Lottery was coming to be, radio ads appeared featuring Lottery spokespersons Slim Whitman and Mother Theresa – because your chances of winning were slim and nun.

Yeah but every couple of weeks or so someone manages to pick out the right penny. Why not you?

Anyone notice the blooper? Or am I seeing things? Oh, and it has nothing to do with what they’re discussing.
